Yes, and it seems to work even better "taking out" of Taiwanese water.

welcome aboard,  tiengulden!!  

depends

If the buffer tube isn't filled (or partially) with water, it will shoot.

you could probably dunk one quickly, and pull it out and shoot it.

it will depend on a few factors, but it can be done.

If it were necassary for me to shoot it immediatly from water I would lock the bolt to the rear before submerging, remove from water at a steep angle butt stock down allowing water to drain from barrel. Depress bolt release and use forward assist if necessary to chamber rnd.

"shoot an AR rifle immediatly from under the water" is impossible.

Butt stock down will not allow the buffer tube to drain.  

Let it drain for a few seconds with the muzzle down and it shoulc fire.  The first shot will clear most of the water, but I wouldn't want to try it.

As long as water has a few seconds to drain out properly, pretty much any firearm (with proper quality ammo) should be able to function properly after being submerged.
